Salma Hayek is an independent woman.

The “Frida” star got candid about her motivation to earn her own income despite her husband François-Henri Pinault’s billion-dollar family fortune.

“I support a lot of the aspects of my life and myself,” the actress said in an interview with WSJ. Magazine published Tuesday.

“I have the pressure to make a certain amount of money, and I like it. And now, I decided, I want to make more.”

“I have the pressure to make a certain amount of money, and I like it. And now, I decided, I want to make more,” the Mexican-born star added.
Hayek, 58, further shared that she and her husband keep their finances “separate” even though there’s “no prenuptial agreement dividing assets.”

She said the French businessman, 62, admires her work ethic.

“I think he finds it kind of sexy,” she said.

The “House of Gucci” star — who shares daughter Valentina, 17, with Pinault — also revealed she’s considering several ideas for ventures with the teen.

Per the outlet, Hayek was born into wealth due to her father’s position as an oil executive, however he lost his fortune by the time she was in her 20s.

The Mexican-born actress then moved to Los Angeles and eventually became the breadwinner for her family back home.

“That’s when I became the best version of myself,” she said.

After tying the knot with Pinault — who serves as the CEO of luxury retail group Kering — Hayek recalled those around her always wanting to discuss money.

“To me, the excitement about having a lot of money was that I didn’t have to think about money, and it turned out all people wanted to talk to me about was money,” Hayek said.

The “Eternals” star also noticed other wealthy people wanted to befriend her simply because of her bank account.

“Strangers coming to me that aren’t even friends, but they think we should be friends because they’re rich too,” she said.
